Well, although we have range check logic in the host side(which checks
the legality of a GM address), the correctness of a GM from vGPU side
are supposed to be guaranteed by the drm mm allocator - all those
ballooned out spaces are marked as reserved.

Yes, you are right.

OK. :)

Well, I prefer VGT. :)

Hah. Guess I need a better comments above. Let me think how to organize. :)

Well, for memory virtualization, the word 'ballooning' does mean this -
it can shrink and grow.
Yet for our Intel GVT-g, the 'ballooning' is used, to emphasis that we
are not just partitioning the GM space to each vgpu, the vgpu can also
perceive its GM address space as starting from zero(although the usable
GM spaces may probably not).
By now, we do not grow/shrink. :)
